Be a Guide | for NCPs

All active NCPs qualify to be a Guide. Guides earn ‘free’ NCP Continuing Education Credits for their time. Guides will typically spend between 1 and 4.5 hours during the candidate’s exam preparation answering questions about how and what to study, general check subject matter, and the exam experience. Guides are encouraged to discuss blueprint areas and how to allocate study time. Guides are forbidden from discussing specific exam questions and/or content or to answer study questions.

CE Credits should be filed across two years if the guidance occurs in the year prior to and
the year of the candidate’s exam; not to exceed 5 credits between them

Providing guidance to additional people in a group setting is acceptable, however, Credit(s) will only
be provided for working with one candidate per exam cycle

Enrollment: June 1 – December 1 for the next year’s exam. Earlier enrollment increases likelihood
of being paired with a candidate

Registration The Guide signs an oath below, emails it to ncpc@eccho.orgncpc@eccho.orgncpc@eccho.orgncpc@eccho.org and becomes paired based on candidate availability. The Guide maintains tracking of the time together and submits with all other NPC CE Credit submissions at year end. (1 CE for each 50 minutes up to 5 CE Credits per exam cycle).
